 Is the Smart Phone
Your Friend?

As smart phones get smarter , they are rapidly replacing personal

computer5 , since they can send email messages and pictures and pick up
broadcast5. For the Íí rst time in human history , people can Íí nd out virtually •

any information , can communicate with anyone , can get emergency help ,
can pass time by playing games or music , can do work , or can engage in
almost any activity , no matter where they are and no matter what time it is.
The equipment that enables this is cheap , compact , and convenient to use.
For many people , especially teenagers , their new smart phones have
become like a family member and constant companion - an electronic best
friend! But they bring their share of problems as wel l. On the one hand ,
they promote dependency - once the attachment is formed , people feel •

naked and helpless without them. They feel the need to be “ connected" at
•

all times , 50 they are slaves to their own devices , with no free time and no
freedom. On the other hand , they are becoming more isolated from the
world; they no longer need to have any physical presence for personal
interaction; they never have to leave their room but can communicate
intimately with perfect strangers. The smart phones also contribute to the •

multi-tasking mentality; the problem with doing several things at once is that
none of these things can be done well.

L We can ’ t own a car yet , and we have to wear schooI uniforms , so the only
way we can express our status and individuality is through our phones . So
“ keeping up with the smart phones" is an important part of social life. If your
phone is too old or too big or too old-fashioned , you are likely to be shunned •
by even your closest friends. Your memory is too slow , and your functionality too
limited , to keep up with your fashionable high-tech friends. Since new models ,
with more and improved features , are always coming out , it ’ s a large challenge to
keep up , but doing so is a necessary part of life. Not being up to date • is a form
of social suicide.

 훌. 1 went to my new school today and was shocked at the barbaric policy it has •

adopted regarding smart phone use. No student is allowed to have a smart phone
while in schoo l. If a student is caught in possession , the phone is confiscated and •

will only be given to the student ’ s parents. This is a terrible policy , for many
reasons . First , it is a flagrant violation of student rights; to be deprived of our
•

phones is to be deprived of our teenage identities! Are we just cattle? Second , what
if there is an emergency at home , or what if someone desperately needs to have an
important conversation? The consequences of being incommunicado could be •

disastrous. Third , sometimes the teachers' lectures are too boring to withstand ,•
and we need some kind of private diversion . It is inhumane to make us suffer
• •

through such torture every moment we are in school. Fourth , a lot of pressure is
•

put on us to get good grades , but there are times when we need some help with a
test or math problem; how are we going to get that assistance if we can ’ t use our
smart phones to find the answer? And , fifth , the policy is discriminatory. Teachers •

and administrators are allowed to have smart phones , but only the students are
prohibited. This is eminently • unfair!

1. What good reasons might a sch。이 have for banning smart phones?
2. What do you think a sensible policy regarding smart phones would be?

• barbaric : very cruel , violent , and uncivilized

• confiscate : officially take (sb ’s) property away , usually as a punishment
• flagrant : very bad; too bad to be ignored
• incommunicado : not able to communicate with other people
• withstand : deal with (sth) successf미 Iy
• diversion : (sth) that people do because it is enjoyable , entertaining , or pleasant
• inhumane : not kind or gentle to people
• torture : (sth) that causes mental or physical suffering
• discriminatory : not fair
• eminently : completely and without a doubt

Face-to-face Talk vs On-Une Talk

Since the electronic calculator was invented, nobody has done any arithmetic , so math
skills have sharply deteriorated.• Smart phone users don ’t need to remember anybody’s
phone number, and our ability to remember things is getting worse. And now we are
worried that teenagers ’ texting capabilities might lead to their forgetting how to talk
face-to-face . It might just be alarmist • fear of new technology - some people probably
worried excessively over the invention of the telegraph , photography, the phonograph ,
movies , radio , and the telephone. But much of the concern over television ’ s bad effects
on young people (i ncluding increased social passivity and lowered imagination
capabilities) continues to be borne out • by researchers , and the connection between
video games and adolescent violence also seems to be genuine. But one thing is clear:
the new technology meets a real social need and will not just disappea r. Societies are
just going to have to come to grips with it.•

We are all egotists who want to be renowned and immorta We wish as

• • l. •

individuals to separate ourselves from the herd , to be both well-known and

long-remembered. When we are young , we try to establish evidence of our
existence by carving our names in a tree or in fresh cement. We want our
pictures taken and distributed as widely as possible. We enjoy seeing our
names in the newspape r. Whenever we can , we try to personalize the
private items we use or wear, so they are uniquely our own . We dream of
becoming celebrities , whose every word and deed are noted and discussed.
Most people fail to realize these desires; they have a circle of friends and
acquaintances around them that they acquire from the neighborhood , from
school , from any organizations they belong to , from work; and , with the
communications technology available , they may have intimate contact with
hundreds of people around the world. Some of them will even occasionally
and temporarily attract wider attention due to some athletic , academic , or
commercial fea t. But very few will ever be truly famous or leave behind any
•

record or accomplishment that will be remarked upon after their deaths.

same would undoubtedly happen if teenage cosmetic surgery were banned . Needy•
plastic surgeons could be persuaded to perform the procedure for a high fee and in
less-than-ideal circumstances , or people who were not qualified to perform the
operation would “ volunteer " to undertake • the
task . In these cases , the safety risks would
elevate , and the number of botched • operations
would go up. Affluent • teenagers would go
abroad to have it done , thus depriving the
domestic economy of cash. So , education and
counseling would be much more effective
tools in dealing with teenage plastic surgery
than prohibition would be .

Should Celebrities Be Quiet?

We all know about famous people who behave badly. They seem to think they are
privileged and don ’ t have to follow the same rules as the rest of us. But their actions
also negatively influence their young fans , who want to emulate • their heroes by
acting in the same manne r. On the other hand , sometimes famous people get veπ
publicly involved in social action of all sorts. They may help publicize • various obscure •
or unpopular causes, or they may protest against war or poveπy or authoritarianism.
Sometimes the lyrics of their songs are intended to be propaganda • for some particular
point of view. The public often criticizes their activism , saying that being famous does
not automatically make anyone knowledgeable about any given topic, so the rest of us
should be allowed to make up our own minds without celebrity influence. But the stars
at fault • usually reply that all citizens have the right to speak out on issues that
concern them , and famous people have the same right to do so as anyone else ,.

 10 Tough Questions
7능ens Face

Teenagers are in a difficult situation. They are no longer children but not yet
adults. They know a lot about the world but lack the credentials to be taken •

seriously. They are not completely dependent upon their parents but are
not independent enough to act on their own. And they have to make
important decisions that can affect them for the rest of their lives. What are
they good at? Is it a talent that is worth developing professionally , or will it
most likely be a hobby? They have been in school for most of their lives; do
they want to continue studying for many more years or begin planning for a
lifestyle that does not need any higher education? Is marriage and a new
family likely to be something that will occur in the near future , or is it
probably going to be several years away?

The answers to these (and other) questions , and the actions taken in
support of those answers , are among the most fateful in anyone ’s life: •

1. How can 1 discover my talent and develop it?

2 . Is a college diploma really a must? •

3 . How can 1 become financially independent?

4. How can 1 succeed without an influential family background? •

5. Who are my real friends? How can 1 distinguish them from casual •

acquaintances?

• credentials : (sb’ s) education , achievements, experience that prove the ability to do (sth)
• fateful : having important results • must : (sth) that is or seems to be required or necessary
• influential : having the power to cause changes
• distinguish : recognize or understand the difference between two similar things

7. Is teenage love just “ puppy love ,"• as adults call it , or is it genuine? •

8. 1 think 1 know how the world is , but adults say 1 know nothing. What do
they know that 1 don ’ t , or are they just fooling themselves? •

9. Is parental love dependent upon strict obedience to parents' wishes , or

is it actually unconditional? •

10. Does money really buy happiness?

If you are struggling with any of these issues , don ’ t feel alone. There are no
•

correct answers to any of these questions , since each one depends on how
an individual assesses his or her own situation. Answers may , in fact ,
•

change according to circumstances and attitudes . And they are all difficult to
come to grips with. But all of them need to be answered , or they may
•

answer themselves in ways that you do not approve of.

The only guidance is that you should be truthful - and true to yourself.
Don ’ t merely answer a question because you think someone else believes in
the validity • of a particular answer. Parents , friends , teachers , gir l/boy
friends may all mean well and may want you to be happy and to succeed ,
but they can ’ t live your life on your behalf.

What Does It Mean?

(1) Lack the credentials to be taken seriously
(2) Are they just fooling themselves?
(3) They can ’ t live your life on your behalf.

Compr’ ehension
(1) What would “ an influential family background" consist of?
(2) How does anyone know if he or she belongs to the in-crowd?
(3) If someone is just fooling himself , what does that mean?

• cave in : finally stop opposing (sth)

• in-crowd : small group of people in an organization who are pop비 ar and have influence
• puppy love : young boy ’s or girl ’s love for (sb) , which people do not regard as serious
• genuine : actual , real , or true • fool oneself : try to make oneself believe (sth) that is not reallytrue
• unconditional : not limited in any way; complete and absolute
• struggle : try very hard to deal with (sth) difficult • assess : make a judgment about (sth)
• come to grips with : begin to understand or deal with (sth) in a direct or effective way
• validity : truthfulness

The WhνS of a College Education

Not long ago , very few people received a higher education. Many did not even finish
high schoo l. But times have changed. Although many people can still get good ,
enjoyable jobs that do not need a college diploma , they often attend college or
university anyway. Doing so has become a normal paπ of becoming an adult. But one
must keep in mind • that it is not the only option , and it is an expensive alternative. A
lot of diplomas go to waste , in that they train people for jobs that they never get. In
some cases , it is because there are too many graduates in some field and not enough
employment slots • for them. In other cases, it is because young people go to college or
establish a major without thinking about the future; they do so because of parental
pressure or social status, or because they don ’t have any other plans, and so they either
drop out or end up • with a certification that does not give them any satisfaction. 50 ,
my advice is: go to college if you really want to , study hard, get the best education you
can , and use your degree to advance in a career field you love. But if you want to do
something that does not require a college degree , follow that other path appropriately
instead; you won ’t regret it. Or, if you don ’t know what you want to do , consider
waiting awhile before you commit to college. And then , when you ’ re sure it’ s right for
you , go for it.

 Half Full vs Half Empty

There is one thing that pessimists and optimists can agree on: that things
are as good as they can be . But for pessimists , the implication is that , sadly ,
even the best is not very good , while optimists think any situation could be
worse and may improve . How can two people look at the same object and
one say , “ The glass is half empty" and the other, “ It is half full "? Is there a
genetic mutation at play here? Or is experience the deciding factor? As in
•

explanations of most human behavior, the answer probably contains both

aspects. In any case , for whatever reason , all of us tend to have either a
negative or positive attitude towards most things. But does either
predisposition have an advantage over the other? Perhaps pessimists are
•

more careful and analytical , and less trustful , in their decision making , since
they want to leave as little to chance as possible , and , since their
expectations are low , they may be satisfied with the outcome. Or maybe
pessimists , who do not believe positive change is likely , would not even
venture to try , while optimists would be willing to pursue unlikely goals
because “ nothing is impossible ." But they may also be rather slipshod in •

their approach , since they do not regard serendipity as their enemy , so •

maybe they usually achieve less than they hoped . 50 , perhaps that is why

• slipshod : too quick ly and carelessly done
• serendipity : unexpectedly finding valuabl e things

the great dreamers of history , who can imagine a better world , are so
seldom the same people who actually bring about change; and perhaps , for
that reason , the pessimists and the optimists are both necessary beings.

… What Does It Mean?

(1) Genetic mutation at play
(2) Would not even venture to try
(3) They do not regard serendipity as their enemy.

… Comprehension
(1) Are people born optimists or do they learn their optimism? What do
you think? Why? Is that also true for pessimists?
(2) Who would you include among the “ great dreamers of history"? Why?
(3) As a practical matter, is optimism or pessimism the better attitude to
have? Explain your answer.

 Teen Dieting

A teenager is not a child anymore but not yet an adult either. Even the body
is in a state of flux , with some parts growing more rapidly than others and
•

nothing quite fitting together comfortably ye t. Most teens look in the mirror
•

and don ’ t like what they see , especially if they compare themselves to
professional models and actors who have “ perfect" bodies. This perceived •

lack , in turn , makes them apprehensive about their social acceptance and
•

popularity. They feel that they must somehow intervene in nature ’ s process •

before it is too late. Some of them turn to surgery to remove fatty tissue or
change the shape of their face , but , more commonly they try to diet their
woes away. Dieting seldom produces long-lasting alteration unless it is
• •

part of a thoroughgoing lifestyle change , and going on a fad diet is

• •

generally more frustrating to the dissatisfied weight changer, so even more

drastic eating patterns may be adopted . At this point , developing an eating
•

disorder such as anorexia or bulimia becomes a frightening possibility. The

tragedy is that in a few months the problem will resolve itself on its own
terms: the adolescent body will achieve its complete , adult form , and the
teenage mind will mature as well; so even if the grown-up physique is still •

less than perfect , the person who wears it may realize that the shape of
one ’ s body is far less important than how one uses that body to achieve
success and happiness for oneself and a betler relationship with everyone
else . A person may be highly self-conscious about his or her appearance ,

훌o Have you ever seen paintings or photographs of people from ages past? In
most cultures , at most times , plump men and women were considered far more
attractive than thin people . Perhaps the common be !ief was that thin people were
sick or hungry; maybe the thought was that they were too poor to eat well , while
people of financial substance could afford to enjoy themselves at the dining table .
Then , in the 1920s or so , movies began to change social perceptions. Typically ,
people look several kilograms heavier on film than they do in !ife , so actors and
actresses had to lose weight in order to appear “ norma l. " As the star system
developed , other people wanted to have the fame and money that were associated
with • celebrity , so they also began to lose weight in an effort to achieve those same
goals. But , in fact , the common wisdom in both cases - that thin people were
either worse off or better off than others - was simply wrong . It is not a cookie-
cutter • world at all ; a large range of
normal , healthy body shapes
exists , and none are better
than the others as long
as people have sufficient
quantities of the various
vitamins and minerals
they need to stay
healthy .

 Upgrade Yourself

Physically , we grow because we eat. It is an automatic process that will

continue throughout our lives. In fact , we have little control over it , aside
from determining what foods and how much of them we eat . But how do
•

we grow mentally and socially? This is a process that is almost entirely in

our own control and will have far-reaching effects on how we live. For the
•

best results , 1 suggest that you follow as many of these suggestions as you
can:
Get in the habit of reading . Read the newspaper every day. Spend some of
your leisure time reading entertaining novels or even comic books. But
don ’ t neglect more serious reading as well: history , biography , poetry ,
discussions of complex moral or political or
scientific issues. The mind needs exercise
just as much as the body does.
Devote yourself to one or more •

hobbies. Collect stamps or coins ,

develop your skills in photography
or cooking . Have fun! But , at the
same time , your hobbies will keep
you engaged with the world while
improving your abilities .

• aside from : except for

• f ar-reaching : having a big influence or effect
• devote oneself to (sth) : do everything one can to achieve (5th)

58 -_Wl'’‘’'.I ::t::t~.r.‘，，.:• .-
1
Work out regularly. Don ’ t neglect your body; it needs to function well for a
long time. A half hour a day of vigorous exercise is all it takes but you
• , •

may want to do more.

Maintain good relationships with others - co-workers , relatives , and others
with whom you share a common interest. We are social animals and need
tδ interact with others to be fully human. At the same time , try to put
yourself in others' shoes; listen more than you speak; stand by those in
•

need; be honest and just. • These are all the qualities that represent the
fipest human traits , but they do not “ just happen" - they all need constant
•

tending. •

Don ’ t cave in to peer pressure. If something seems stupid or harmful to

you , it probably is. Trust your own judgment and act accordingly. •

All of these practices may sound easy and even trivial. But in fact they all
require strong determination and regular effort. But you can do it! •

Bulk Up Those Brain Muscles!
•

The brain is just like any other muscle. It needs to be exercised or it will become weak,
flabby ,• and useless. But mental exercise does not consist of~ physical effort. The mind
can ’ t lift anything , it can ’ t thrqw anything , it can ’ t run or jump. But it exercises by
reading , writing , thinking , memorizing , solving problems, and, most effectively of a11 ,
by imagining. These days , people seem to reod much less than their parents did; a lot
of learning is visuol or ouditory, • on TV or compute r. But we should not neglect
reading. This octivity forces us to concentrate and to construct obstract relotionships
which are at the core • of thought. But even octively reoding something is possive
compared to the oct of writing. If we can ’t describe what we know by writing it down ,
do we truly know it? And without words , we cannot think ot a11! Hove you ever tried to
think by color or shope? Engoging in rote • memorizotion is olwoys hord work , but it
forces us to retoin large omounts of informotion; this 0.. f'"
process of storage helps us develop a strong
memory. Problem solving can be as simple (ond
fun) os working on 0 crossword puzzle or similar
game , but it provides long-term benefits for our
mental copocity. And , finolly , the oct of
imogining is whot makes humans unlike any
other animals. They often use tools and figure
out problems connected with comfort and
survival , but there is no evidence thot they can
creote 0 situotion thot is beyond their present
circumstance. By 011 means , to be os human

 Jobs First or Children

Li fe used to be fairly simple for women. They were expeded to get married
young , have children, and stay at home to take care of the household. But
the situation is more complicated now. Many still follow the traditional path,
by choice or necessity. But others opt out of marriage altogether, or they
•

wish to have husbands but no children or children but no husbands , or they

want to combine careers with motherhood. The last choice is the hardest to
achieve and may produce the worst effeds on the children involved.
Children of working mothers may be less likely to lead a healthy lifestyle,
British researchers found , regardless of the mother ’s ethnicity ,• education ,
or job leve l. After adjustment for socio-demographic charaderistics, it was
• •

found that children whose mothers work, whether part time or full time , are
less likely to eat fruits or vegetables at meals or as snacks, and are more
likely to drink sweetened beverages than natural , healthy drinks. They also
sit in front of the television or the computer screen more than two hours a
day, compared with the less-than-two-hour average of the children of stay-
at-home moms and are more likely to be driven to school than to walk or
ride a bike.

Time constraints• may limit parents' capacity to provide their children with
healthy foods and opportunities for physical activity. The absent parents'
inability to police their kids' activities may also be a factor. The research ,
•

however, does not imply that mothers should not work but instead
•

highlights the need for more policies and programs to support parents.
• •

A generation or two ago , most families got bψ with a single paycheck. But
changing attitudes and opportunities have made it economically difficult for
a household to survive unless both parents are employed. At the same time ,
the number of single parents (mostly women without husbands) has also
risen dramatically. But whatever the reasons for the change are , it is still the
children who are most victimized by the new situation. Unless modern
•

industrial societies become more communal in their child-rearing •

arrangements , it is difficult to see how kids ’ conditions are likely to improve.

Feminism for Men
Paradoxically,• the feminist • movement has not only liberated • women from narrow
patriarchal • attitudes but has also freed men to lead their own lives too. Until recently,
men had to work or their families would suffe r. It made no difference whether or not
men were happy in their occupations or whether they wanted to spend more time with
their wives and children - for them it WQS either work or starve. 50, women got to • put
their full effort into being good wives and mothers , while feeling frustrated that they
could not use their talents and abilities outside the home , but men were often almost
strangers in their own homes , spending a lot of time at work but very little with their
loved ones. But then women began moving into the workforce in large numbers; and
soon after that it became unremarkable • for women to earn as much (or more) than
their husbands. As a result , many of these unhappy male workers have found lives of
fulfillment by quitting their jobs and staying at home; they have become loving
parents and happy , dedicated • homemakers , while their wives have climbed the
corporate ladders • and pursued exciting careers. Isn ’ t it odd • that so many women
became liberated by leaving home , while their husbands freed themselves by going
back home?

 What Would You Do ,
If ••• ?

As years go by , more evidence comes to light of the reasoning ability of

various animal species. So what separates them from us? Perhaps it is the
human capacity not only to recognize and respond to reality but also to
imagine that which does not exist. We can put ourselves into hypothetical •

situations. We can picture alternative explanations and solutions. In our

•

mind ’ s eye , we can see that which has never been seen. As a result , we are
capable of creating paintings , poems , stories , symphonies , and sculptures;
we have the ability to invent the wheel and the rocket ship , the zipper and
the computer chip. We can construct laws and systems of morality. We can
count with imaginary numbers that do not exist in
nature but which actually describe the
fundamental working of the universe. Human
imagination is not only the fountainhead of •

our cultural and technical development but

also our hopes and dreams of the
future - a future that includes
our next moment and
the rest of eternity. And •

it all begins with two

simple words: “ What
if?"

Every invention is 0 frvit of the qvestion rv\ OrK tree.

investments. Because he was interested only in enjoying his final days , he traveled
everywhere first class and stayed only in five-star hotels . He dined in the finest
restaurants and went to a11 the cultural attractions. In less than a year, he had spent
his entire fortune , but he still felt fine. $0 he went to a free health clinic to see how
much longer he had to live. The new doctor found he had been wrongly diagnosed the

 Keeping Score

We can ’ t help ourselves we constantly make judgments about other

• -

people and about ourselves. We do this from the first moment we encounter •

someone else , when we have very little information to go on. And we make
these judgments in a very intense manner , so that , as it is said , “ first
impressions are lasting ones." However, over time , as we learn more , we
may modify or even change our opinions of others. And we can never
•

expect to form a complete , and completely accurate , understanding of

anyone; even people we have known intimately for our entire lives are still
capable of presenting themselves in a wholly new light. We also •

occasionally surprise ourselves and do something we never expected to do

or react to something in a way that we had not anticipated. The others , of

course , apply the same process to us , assessing us , categorizing us ,
•

subjecting us to constant scrutiny. To succeed in life , at least insofar as that

•

means assuming a leadership role , depends in large part on mastering these

three aspects of keeping score: being able to read other people accurately ,
having a thorough self-understanding , and controlling , or at least strongly
influencing , how other people perceive us .

(2) Presenting themselves in a wholly new light
(3) Categorizing us

4. Let's score teenagers' courtesy to elderly people. (Do they respect older adults?)
5. Let잉 score adults' honesty. (Do they keep their promises, especially to young

How to Keep Your Promises - to Yourself!
People sometimes make promises to themselves that they cannot easily keep. They may
want to improve some aspect of their lives , such as studying harder or more effectively,
or they might want to give up a bad habit, such as smoking or eating poorly. Usually ,
they begin with the best of intentions. But it normally does not take very long for
problems to develop. People don ’t quite know what needs to be done (“ What does
studying more effectively enta il?") or haven ’t figured out what they need to do to
change their own behavio r. 00 they eat poorly because they skip • too many meals , or
do they go with their friends to 0 fast-food restaurant too often? If they miss too many
meals , is it because they have 0 time-management problem , or is it because they can ’t
fix their own meals properly or don ’t have anyone able to do it for them? If they go to
the fast-food eateries too many times , how can they cut down their participation
without alienating their friends? Can they make better, healthier , food choices?
Whatever the issue is that prompted the desire to make a change , the cause of the
problem is undoubtedly not an easy one to overcome , or it probably would not be an
urgent problem to begin with. 50, however well-meaning • people are , they often find it
too difficult to keep their promises easily and soon stop making the effort. Later, they
again make the same promises to themselves and fail again for the same reasons. But
it doesn ’ t have to be this way! T0 keep your promises to yourself, the first step is to
realize that it will be hard to do so and that it will
require 0 long time and a lot of aUention. The
second step , therefore , is to analyze precisely what
needs to be done. Oevise a strategy. • The third step
is. “ after you plan your work , work your plan." Be
consistent and persisten t. Oon ’ t get discouraged; the
hardest part is at the very beginning , and it becomes
easier as you go along. The fourth step is to keep
track of your progress: make charts , take notes ,
keep a diary. 5eeing how much progress you
are making will boost your confidence and
•

help you achieve your goa 1.

2. If you had a habit you wanted to break , how would you do it?
3. Are there ever any cir‘ cumstances that would excuse people from violating a

Here is some food for though t. For centuries , people had trouble locating
the information they needed. Now , thanks to the World Wide Web , we have
the opposite problem , too much information at our fingertips. In addition ,
we have unparalleled access to aural and visual media as well. But much of
•

it is irrelevant ,• and some of it is harmfu l. 50 , more than ever, it is

important for people to develop good critical thinking skills that they can
use to evaluate the quality of the information they obtain. A big part of this
process is to develop good reading habits. For millennia , books have been
the chief means of educating humankind , not just about facts but , even
more importantly , about values , viewpoints , and ideas themselves. Even
with the Internet , we still need to expose ourselves to the books that
humanize us: poetry and literature in general , philosophy , history ,
biography , travel , and so forth. We shouldn ’ t be like unthinking robots let

Don't Just Take My Word for It.

There is a saying about statistics: “Fi gures never lie , but liars certainly do figure." •
Historians , journalists , scientists , and others are trained to engage in objective ,
scholarly research and observation , but special interests often hire them to use their
skills for advocating a particular point of view or advancing a specific goa 1. The mass
media are especially guilty of distortion. • For instance , if a historian is writing for other
historians , who are trained in the “ historical method ," they would be quick to notice
bias and weak evidence and would judge the writing accordingly; but if a historian is
appearing on TV , the audience would be more inclined to accept that historian ’ s
summary judgments without realizing what the ulterior• motives were for making
those pronouncements. • The “ facts" presented may indeed be accurate (sometimes they
are not) , but they may well be selective • and self-
serving. • So, the best advice is to be skeptical • and

The human population of the planet has kept doubling every few decades
for about 200 years now. This has caused a diminution of everything that •

humans use and an increase in pollution. People who live in relatively

simple societies with relatively stable population sizes still suffer from the
age-old scourges of ignorance , poverty , and illness , but the move into
•

modern societies - with more educational opportunities , higher standards

of living , and better medical care - is the root cause of our environmental •

problems. Tropical forests are disappearing , desertification is expanding ,

and farmland is being transformed into highways , airports , and housing
developments . As habitats disappear, so does wildlife; species become
•

extinct and threatened. Overfishing means the loss of a major supply of

•

food. Our energy demands keep expanding as our lifestyles become more
comfortable , but industrialization and reliance on fossil fuels poison our air
and water, causing not only serious long-term medical problems but also
profound climate change. Although these changes are ongoing , the rate of
change is rapidly accelerating to the extent that they are not only observable •

so far , very little is being done to address any of the problems in an
•

effective , meaningful way. Governrnents are slow to act , if they act at all;
businesses continue to resist change; and people decline to make any
sacrifices in their personal habits. Instead of walking a single block to the
local store , or riding a bicycle , we continue to get in our automobile to drive
there. On our way , we casually litter the roadways , with no thought of the

Teacher : If there is a big storm , a typhoon or

responsibility for rebuilding , the government
or the individual?

without the physical or financial means to
rebuild. It seems to me that only the government l rn fvll 'j e9매ped to

Should the government be responsible for rebuilding every time , or should the individual
take initial • responsibility and move somewhere else that is safer?
Doris : Hmmm. It doesn ’t seem very smart to live somewhere that is obviously so hazardous. •
Maybe the government should ban anyone from living there.
Teacher : Probably hundreds of families would have to move. Relocation would be expensive , and
many people don ’ t have enough money to buy a new home. So , would it be up to the
government to provide a11 of the money to cover the costs involved?
Doris : It would be a lot, 1 guess , but it would be a one-time investmen t. In the long run , it would
be 0 lot cheaper than refinancing rebuilding a11 the time.

Doris : What do you mean?
Teacher: Should a person be entirely responsible for bad choices? If you smoke , for example , and
get lung cancer, are you on your own? • Should government-provided health care be
available to you? Are we a11 responsible for treating you , since it is our taxes that would
pay for health care?
Doris : The government should try to educate us to make good choices , but it can ’ t rea11y keep us
from doing whatever we wan t. Even if the government bans tobacco products , people will
still find some way of obtaining them.
Teacher : So 0 determined smoker gets lung cancer after repeatedly breaking the law? Does society
still have any responsibility for providing care?
Doris : Lots of nonsmokers get lung cancer, too. So if the government helps them , it should help
eveηrone. But it could still enforce • penalties , like fines or prison time , on people who
violate the law.
Teacher: Should the government require everyone to buy insurance?
Doris : 1 guess it can do so , if it doesn ’ t want to use taxes to provide healthcare itself.
Teacher: Then , can it force everyone to eat only healthy food , get plenty 0

Atomic Energy: Cheap, Green, and Deadly
Nuclear energy was once hailed • as the answer to the world ’s power needs. It is re1ative1y cheap
to produce and causes no pollution. Even so , opponents have 10ng insist ed it has many
drawbacks, especia11y the terrib1e potentia1 effects of radiation in case of an accident. A nuclear
scare occurred at Three-Mile Is1and in Pennsylvania , but the
operators were ab1e to prevent any serious radiation 1eak.
The operators of the Chernoby1 p1ant were not as 1ucky,
however, and a massive radiation 1eak continues to cause
death and disease through much of eastern Europe. Even
more recent1y, an earthquake and tsunami devastated a
nuclear energy facility in northern Japan , threatening that
nation and its neighbors as we1 1. Champions • of nuclear
energy continue to claim that it is safe , as shown even in the
worst scenarios , and insist that the gains far outweigh • the
risks; but many peop1e , and even severa1 governments that had
been strong1y pro-nu디 ear， seem to be having second thoughts. • It
seems unlike1y that any new nuclear p1ants will be operating any
time soon. Who EvER w。이d have thov~ht that a

 “ Prejudice" means judgment in advance . Because no one can know
everything , we often take mental shortcuts. So , based on cases we know
•

about , or what others have told us about certain groups , we make

assum ptions about various traits that we associate with that group , even
• • •

though these assumptions may not apply to the specific individua l.

Sometimes the assumptions are positive , but often they are negative. Thus ,
we know that Person X belongs to Group A (a Christian , a Russian , a
teenager, or from a rich and distinguished family , etc.) but we don ’ t really
know Person X well , or maybe not at all , and we automatically assign the •

qualities that we associate with Group A to him or her. Perhaps , as we

come to know Person X or learn more about him or her, we modify these
assumptions or abandon them entirely; or sometimes we change our
•

preconceptions about Group A. Even though the entire process is f! awed •

and illogical , we probably never can entirely abandon this way of thinking .
We can , however, try to keep an open mind and realize what our individual
prejudices are so that we can recognize them as such and minimize their
ability to control our decision-making .

를o We always hear about “ maternal love " or the “ mater뻐 instinct" but very
seldom about instinctive paternal affection . 1 suppose that this is because , in most
societies , mothers spend more time at home with their children than fathers do . It
is probably also , of course , because of the intimate bonding that occurs between
the pregnant mother and the child in the womb ; for nine months they are eating
the same food and sharing the same environment , even as the infant slowly
develops a separate identity . But in the real world , conditions are often differen t.
Aunts and grandmothers , or even non-relatives who are hired for the purpose ,
may do most of the child-rearing . A large number of babies are given up for
adoption . The actual moms may be neglectful , uncaring , selfish , or absent , and
dads may willingly and lovingly take up the slac k. •

 훌<<> The rich may indeed be tax evaders. But that is because they are people
Almost everybody tries to minimize the amount of taxes he or she pays , and almost
no one pays more than he or she has to . The only real difference between rich and
poor is that the wealthy have more opportunities for successful evasion. Various
categories of wealth - capital gains ,• bonuses , income , inherited property , lottery
winnings , rents , royalties , etc . - may not all be taxed at the same rate , and various
tax shelters• may not readily be available to people of modest means.• The vast
majority of people spend most of their money or necessities so they have little left
over to place into low-tax situations , but the wealthy have a great deal of money
that they do not have to spend - their expenses are largely discretionary. • So they
can put capital in categories that are not highly taxed , or they can deposit it in
foreign bank accounts to hide it from their government ’ s tax coffers; • they can hire
talented accountants who know how to take advantage of tax laws and loopholes;•
and they can even spend money to influence legislatures to write laws , and to
influence tax officials to interpret those laws , that benefit the rich . But the truth is
the less-rich would do the same , if only they had the means to do so.

Being an Invalid• Does Not Make a Person Invalid.

With little or no understanding of the actual circumstances, we often rush to judgment.

One example of this is the way we tend to treat people with physical disabilities. By
definition , blind people cannot see; but poor eyesight does not imply poor IQ. People in
wheelchairs cannot walk; but having weak or missing legs does not mean having a
weak mind. Being deaf does not equate • to being daft. •
One sort of disability does not automatically infer•
disability throughout the system; physical handicaps
do not always signal mental handicaps. But because
of our prejudices and bigotries , we undeservedly •
handicap • those same people who do not need to be
further disadvantaged , when a little , inexpensive
assistance (ramps instead of stairs , Braille elevator
buttons, crosswalk recordings , and so on) would be of
great help. But of far greater harm is the attitude
displayed to people with defects: • they are ridiculed ,
isolated , ignored , talked down to ,• passed over• for
job opportunities , and otherwise treated as
subhuman . Their contributions to society are
•

spurned ,• and , as a result , society is the greatest

lose r.

 On-line Games

Gaming is the new golf. For a long time adults , especially in the business
world , have exploited golf for its social connectivity. A small group of
• •

people from different situations , who may not know each other well , spend
hours together , away from crowds and pressing matters , playing a •

frustrating but highly competitive game , allowing them to interact on a

personal basis and develop close relationships. Gaming offers a similar
opportunity for kids and young adults. Gamers spend hours mastering their
skills while testing themselves against other players. The rival gamesters
may be anywhere in the world , but , even though they are hiding behind
gamester identities they have created , they often become very close to each
other and develop genuine friendships. In addition , when not on-line , teens
talk to each other about their prowess and discuss new games. •

Furthermore , the development of quick physical reflexes and decision- •

making skills that are a necessary part of gaming success also play an
important role in real-world activities - unlike knocking a little white ball
around in a grassy field.

L We used to think of addiction as referring only to a physical and psychological
dependency on drugs , but the concept has widened to cover many other
situations. We began to realize that addiction to substances • other than narcotics
also existed , especially alcohol and tobacco. But we also started to understand that
we can get hooked on activities , such as gambling , as well. So , an addiction is an
unhealthy focus on some aspect of life. If we are addicted , that aspect takes over •

and becomes more important than anything else - maintaining relationships ,

persevering in our studies or jobs , or maintaining an acceptable appearance .
Sometimes I find myself so involved in playing a game that I have to stop and ask
myself , “ Am I addicted to this? " And then I have to turn off my computer and take
a walk for a while. I guess I’ m not really addicted , since I’ m able to stop , but I
keep going back to my games , and each time it gets harder to qui t. So , if I am not
addicted , am I becoming addicted?

 훌.... My parents do바 understand game playing at al l. They think it is an
expensive waste of time , and that 1 should be doing almost anything else instead.
They especially want me to study more and get more exercise. 1 guess their attitude
comes from the fact that gaming was not very important when they were growing
up , so they don ’ t understand it and , quite frankly , theyaren ’ t very good at it. They
lack both the concentration and the coordination • to succeed , so they condemn •
the activity because they can ’ t compete well at it. But when they were growing up ,
they also found hobbies and activities they enjoyed , as a supplement • to studying .
They listened to music incessantly • or watched television or went shopping or
played football , and they resented their own parents telling them that they spent
too much time doing those things. It’ s the same situation today , except the focus is
on gaming now rather than the preoccupations of their own youth .

Virtual Violence Is Real.
What if the violence depicted • in games became the reality for teenagers? Many teens
seem to be confused , unable to tell the difference between reality and virtual • reality, or
between real life and what they see in the movies or on TV. 50 , psychologists say, they
act violently toward others , just like they do in the games. Just like they see people
behave in the fantasy world they inhabit. • Many studies have shown a correlation •
between antisocial behavior and both the kinds of games played and the amount of
time spent playing them . It is not a one-to-one situation , obviously , because some
intense players show little or no aggression , while some other violent people play few or
no games; and , of course , many other factors come
into play: age , poverty , parenting , success in
school , and social life outside of gaming all
seem to play a part. Nonetheless , when all
other elements are factored out, • it is still clear
that playing violent games has a direct
impact on how kids react to their
environment. Is this a new phenomenon ,
or did a similar situation exist before the
age of electronic communication? If it is a
real problem , what can we do about it?

 Special Issue
Quotes to Ponder

Proverbs play a special role in human culture . Every society has its
storehouse of common wisdom, couched in memorable phrases. Often
• •

they are presented as sharp images , as in “ Don ’t cry over spilled milk ,"
meaning that a bad event can ’ t be changed after it occurs , so we should just
accept it and go on with life ; or, “ Why close the barn door after the horse
has f!ed? " suggesting the uselessness of taking preventive measures after the
bad event has happened (and also pointing out that some bad events can be
avoided with a little forethought). Often they are perfectly balanced parallel
•

structures , such as “ A penny saved is a penny earned " - note the

repetition of the phrase “ a penny ---------" followed by two contrasting
qualities , implying that thrift has the same positive economic effect as
income. Similarly , “ A place for everything and everything in its place"
reverses the words “ place" and “ everything" and indicates that the universe
is an ordered environment and that nothing exists that does not belong , but
that all things should be in their proper place , not elsewhere. The proverb
may not even be a whole sentence, but merely a significant fragmen t:
“ penny wise , pound foolish " is a shorthand criticism of thinking small , not
considering the larger picture. Many proverbs promote practical behavior
via a short, rhyming poem. “ Early to bed and early to rise make a man
healthy , wealthy , and wise" explains the positive benefits of not staying up
late at nigh t. Sometimes , of course , different proverbs offer conflicting •

advice ; if 1 have doubts about taking some particular action, should 1 heed
the warning to “ look before you leap" or should 1 take note that 개e who
hesitates is lost"? One special quality of a proverb, as you have doubtless •

• storehouse : large amount of (sth)

• couched : said or expressed
• forethought : careful thinking or planning about the futu re
• conflicting : incompatible; clashing
• doubtless : without doubt or with very little doubt

138 -_~Ia’'''.I ::I:I ~.r".:. __

noticed , is that it is quite pithy; it takes a 10t 10nger to exp1ain what it
•

means than the proverb itself requires to make its point: “ brevity is the soul
of wi t." It is a good thing that all of these proverbia1 expressions are
ubiquitous in English-speaking 1ands; basically , everyone is familiar with
•

them from childhood and don ’ t need to be to1d what they mean , so they
can automatically be applied in the appropriate situation. But , like any
idiom , they often seem nonsensica1 to peop1e from other cultures.
•

Neverthe1ess , some kinds of proverbia1 advice seem to be universa1 and

similar in presentation. “ Jack of all-trades , master of none" is very close to
"He who has ten skills can't make a Iiving."

I know I can find the answe t" to eve t" y sitvation

 Speciallssue: Laughter is
the Best 1ηedicine

The less expensive product is seldom the best , but laughter solves many
problems and costs nothing . If we can ’ t laugh at ourselves and our
predicaments the stress and anxiety will just make the situation worse and
, •

prolong the agony. Laughter is no substitute for action , but it allows us to

• • •

take the appropriate steps more quickly and with clearer heads than
otherwise; and if no action can possibly reverse or ameliorate the issue , at •

least laughter can help us bear it. Of course , it is easier to say this than to
•

do it. When something terrible or even just inconvenient occurs , our first
response is to take it to heart: Something bad happens to us , and naturally
•

we take it badly; this is an appropriate , automatic reaction. But somehow

we have to reprogram ourselves so that our second response is to step back
from the problem and see it with new eyes. God or Fate or the Cosmos
must have a mischievous sense of humor when the twisting paths of our
• • •

lives are being laid out; we need to respond in kind and , for our own
acceptance and healing process to begin , let ourselves in on the joke and
accept the humor of the moment. Life cannot be all laughs or all tears , after
all: it is a tragicomedy , full of highs and lows with many rough spots along •

the way.
